Tunic Review - The Final Verdict

  • Overall, Tunic is one of those games that totally leans into its execution to tremendous effect. It doesn’t reinvent or revolutionize its core concepts as much as I would have liked, nor does it bring any one gameplay component into the fold that I haven’t seen before, but the way it does patch everything together with its own sense of style is something to behold for the genre.
    Despite being a little light on depth and lacking a major gameplay hook of its own, I suspect most who pursue this adventure will find little, if anything, they don’t admire about it.

    It's such a huge problem that most reviewers even don't have a clue about the whole golden path thing or any of the endgame content, because that's what elevated Tunic from a good game to one of the most amazing games ever made.

      this game looks like zelda. im thinking about this for ps5. into more of these types lately like i’m trying bugsnax now as well. the graphics look cool and different. I think i’m tired of shooters and dark adventure games.

      I feel like the game had three major segments to it
      Key collection
      Spirit realm
      Gold path
      And like you said every reviewer I've seen seems to have only gotten to the first area which isn't even to the filling of the pie!!

I have my ps for their exclusives, I have my sexbox for everything else. 1st party/gamepass, 3rd party and everything else I play there. The a.punt of gaming I get from ganepass faaaaar outweighs sonys exclusives...at least right now. For 1 70 dollar game, I can get half a year of gp. There's really no question there. Am I gunna replay that game for a half yr? No sirrie. Idc how great it is, there's no way in fack I'm doing that. This is why competition is a good thing. Sony obv took notice with project Spartacus in the works.

    I heard good things about this game being one of the top indies you must play(so I did since it was on gamepass) and after experiencing it for myself I can see why.
    The music is beautiful and calming.
    Now the combat can be a bit frustrating since you need to press LB (in Xbox)to change weapons or use consumables. I wish there was a better way to implement inputs while in combat without going into the menu and switching your shortcuts constantly. I also experienced getting stuck in the environment quite a few times and sometimes the path wasn't very clear when going under hidden areas.
    The blue gem took me the longest to uncover and the last boss was brutal
    LOL.
    Other than that exploration is amazing in this game and the manual has everything you need to figure out your journey
    Absolutely a gem.
